Halloween Masks

These masks are really simple and quick to make and you can choose from all sorts of Halloween faces!

Things you will need:

• Some paper plates
• Some cardboard
• Some markers, crayons or paint
• A scissors
• A hole punch
• A stapler
• Some green string or elastic

What to do:

1. Draw a face on the back of the paper plate. For a pumpkin paint the plate orange. Draw circular eyes, a triangle nose and a spiky mouth. Decorate the rest of the mask.
2. Cut the eyes, nose and mouth out with a scissors. This should be done under parental supervision.
3. Punch a small hole on each side of the paper plate.
4. Tie a length of green string to each side of the paper plate.
5. Tie this at the back of the child’s head. Elastic can be used instead.
6. Note: If you do not want to be a pumpkin, you can decorate the mask whatever way you like. Use green paint to be a monster or black paint to be a cat. Just draw whiskers and ears on to finish the effect.
